Pieces in the Wrong Places

[Verse 1]
I spent my yes on borrowed nights
Kept every door a little wide
Gave out the parts I meant to save
Made promises I couldn't keep

[Pre-Chorus]
Then you arrived, and all at once
The room went still, the years stood up
I knew your name before you spoke
But every vow was already broke

[Chorus]
I feel like a puzzle with the pieces in the wrong places
You’re the picture I can see, but I can’t make the shapes fit
I found the one too late, with my hands full of old promises
Now I’m boxed in, watching my life’s love pass me by

[Verse 2]
I gave my best to passing flames
And wore their endings like my name
You hold the future I once drew
While all my past keeps pulling through

[Bridge]
If I could turn the years around
I’d leave those empty vows face down
But time has locked the frame in place
And I can only watch your face

[Final Chorus]
I feel like a puzzle with the pieces in the wrong places
You’re the picture I can see, but I can’t make the shapes fit
I found the one too late, with my hands full of old promises
Now I’m boxed in, watching my life’s love pass me by

[Outro]
The picture’s clear
The pieces aren’t
